I spent the first three nights of my vacation at Hôtel Le Toiny, a super private, very relaxing hotel with just a handful of rooms in Côte Sauvage. I had my own pool and a beautiful cottage suite. Every morning, the staff set up my breakfast outside. It’s the perfect place for honeymooners or celebrities who want absolute peace.

When my friends arrived, we moved into a villa just behind Le Toiny. We had an astonishing view of the bay, a massive pool, and a fridge stocked with wine and French delicacies. This is my Titanic shot.

My favorite beach is Gouverneur. It’s quite far and complicated to get to, but it is so worth it. It has endless white beaches and clear, azure water that you can see for days. Here I am jumping among the coconut trees.

It’s supposed to be hurricane season in the Caribbean. That’s why it will rain sometimes. Here I am shielding myself from the elements at an outdoor dinner with Chanel’s Bianca Manley and her friend.

My sister and I stayed at Le Sereno Hotel for a few nights. This is definitely my new favorite hotel in the world! The best thing about it? The breeze! It’s set in a shallow bay with a heavenly wind that attracts all kinds of water sport fanatics.

One day we rented a boat and cruised around the island. It’s cool to see the beaches we visited from the other side.

The funniest place on the island is Le Ti St. Barth. It’s a pirate-themed restaurant where people end up dancing on the tables by 11:00 p.m. If not for the food, you go to people-watch. The scene is hilarious!
